CONCRETE SEWER PIPE
TESTED BY UNIVERSITY
Professor Evinger Secure Sec
tions Such as Used by
City of Lincoln.
Through the co-operation of Trof.
M. I. Evingrer, of the department of
civil engineering, and Dean A. Mars
ton of the Iowa State College of
Engineering, the University was able
to obtain for testing purposes eight
sections of reinforced concrete pipe,
selected from those manufactured for
the reconstruction of the Lincoln out
fall sewer, which failed during the
spring months of this year.
Three sections of the pipe, one
month old, have been tested in the
testing laborary of the applied me
chanics department. They, as the
rest, were lock-joint pipe with an in
side diameter of fifty-one inches, a
laying length of four feet, and a
thickness of shell of five inches.
"Three other sections will be tested
in the laboratory after the pipe has
cured for a longer period of time.
Two other sections are now being
tested under actual trench conditions.
It is believed that as a result of the
tests in progress some very practical
correlations will be developed be
tween the design and the laboratory
tests of the pipe on one hand, and
the actual conditions to be met with
in practice on the other hand," said
Professor Evinger.
These pipe are among the largest
that have been subjected to labora
tory test and are serving as a prac
tical experience to the students.
Professors Evinger and Duff are
now carrying on tests and special in
vestigations of a clay product, com
mercially known as Segment Blocks,
now commonly used in sewer con
struction, and used by Lincoln in the
construction of the outfall sewer, but
which failed in the spring rains last
year. It is believed that these tests
will prove of especial value to muni
cipal engineers, and for that reason
Dean Ferguson hopes that the results
may be published in bulletin form
for general distribution among those
interested.
